On 18 November 2025, a vehicle-ramming attack and mass stabbing left at least three people killed, including both perpetrators, in the Gush Etzion Junction, West Bank.[1][2] Three others were injured, including a child.[3] Palestinian Islamic Jihad took credit for the attack.[3]
Attack
Two Palestinian men, identified as Walid Sabarneh of Beit Omar and Amran al-Atrash of Hebron, arrived by car at the Gush Etzion Junction at around 2 p.m.. They proceeded to turn right toward Jerusalem before accelerating toward the hitchhiking post and attempting to strike civilians. The attackers exited the vehicle and attempted to stab those in the area.[4] A 60-year-old man was stabbed to death, and a man and child were both injured in the attacks.[3][5]
The perpetrators were shot and killed by an IDF soldier.[3]
Aftermath
Palestinian Islamic Jihad took credit for the attack and congratulated the perpetrators, urging others to participate in similar attacks.[3] Hamas said the attack was "a natural response to Israel’s attempts to eliminate the Palestinian cause and to the rampage of the occupation and the settlers in the West Bank".[6]
